Thanks for the patch. I've pushed it to master now:

    avvidenc: Add thread-count parameter for libav encoders

    As some libav encoders (such as MPEG2) use a thread_count parameter to
control
    how many threads to use, and since it was always being set to 0 (which uses
    the default), suboptimal threading can sometimes be chosen.  This extends
the
    libav encoders to allow for a max-threads parameter which is passed into
    the internal structure to control this knob if applicable to the encoder.
